Perhaps they can. But the truth is, few people actually do it; fewer still see that book published, and even fewer see it published to critical and popular acclaim. And then there’s J. K. Rowling. She wrote and published a few books you may have heard mentioned— maybe even read. They are about a boy who learns he is a wizard . . . a boy with an iconic scar on his forehead . . . a boy who lives, despite the best efforts of the world’s most powerful, dark wizard. The boy is Harry Potter. J. K. Rowling’s books about him not only have received great acclaim but also have forever changed the world. Rowling’s work is phenomenal in the truest sense of the word. Her books about Harry and his wizarding world have sold by the hundreds of millions of copies and, according to her American publisher, have been translated into 77 different languages and sold in more than 200 countries. Rowling is a writer whose work has impacted the world far beyond the content of her books. The world of Harry Potter and the world of J. K. Rowling are rich with imagination, creativity, and a powerful call for the triumph of light over darkness. Rowling’s work goes beyond words, beyond the confines of her pages. It is part of our global culture and is woven into the very fabric of our lives. The Journey Begins
Rowling conceived the world of Harry Potter and began to write his story on a train ride from Manchester to London, England, in 1990. She plotted the books and began to write the first novel over the next five years. In 2007, she completed the series she originally imagined on that train. J. K. stands for Joanne Kathleen. But Kathleen isn’t really part of her name. When she published her first book, the publisher asked her to use initials, thinking a woman ’s name would put off boys as readers. Rowling added the K for Kathleen—her grandmother’s name— and became J. K.
